Positive Tomorrows is a school for homeless children dependent on private donors for funding. The annual report distributes financial information yearly and explains the group’s mission to potential donors and community leaders.
Each year, S Design has shared stories of the students and families the school has helped. On site, journalistic photography and straightforward copy give the audience a realistic view of the challenges the organization and their children face.
As one of our first clients, we’ve watched Positive Tomorrows grow alongside us. They help us remember where we came from and we aim to remind the community “there but for the grace of God go I.”

The College of Continuing Education and the College of Liberal Studies are both housed within Oklahoma University’s Outreach Department. Since its inception, the department has helped Oklahomans continue their education in all corners of the world, with students in Afghanistan, Europe and throughout the United States.
Each year, OU Outreach must produce a comprehensive report that details all grants and program expenditures. S Design recognized numbers alone do not share the success of the university’s efforts.
We worked closely with the department staff to create a structure that would convey the department’s mission and successes. General program facts were organized into short sections to provide quick overviews of each discipline and in-depth narratives of specific student stories and graphics showed their locations highlighted their global reach.
The Factbook is published annually by the Oklahoma Institute for Child Advocacy as a resource for community leaders, legislators and child-welfare advocates. The publication must clearly illustrate statistical data on a wide range of social issues and explain the resulting implications for Oklahoma’s children and families.
S Design created this annual book, which is designed so the statistical information is easily comparable with past publications but also remains fresh and engaging. Complex graphs and tables are well organized while the narrative is structured to help the reader quickly navigate and find data about specific issues. Portraits of young Oklahomans provide an emotional connection and remind the reader of the reason for studying these statistics– to improve their health and opportunities.
As part of their commitment to provide a bright future for the state’s children, The Factbook is a green project. For the past 3 years, the piece has been printed on 100% post consumer waste paper manufactured with wind-generated electricity and FSC certified.
We like to call it practicing what you preach.
The Oklahoma Center for the Advancement of Science and Technology helps scientists and researchers develop, produce and market their projects. The state-funded initiative relies on legislation for its annual budget. Each year, OCAST produces an annual report to emphasize their benefit to Oklahoma citizens.
In 2008, S Design set out to position the group and its participants as progressive, yet approachable, people with a great influence on Oklahoma’s social and economic health. Onsite portraits show the researchers and their work while statistics and data cut directly to the chase.
State legislators were convinced Oklahoma’s future success is tied to the continued funding and success of these programs.
